I wanted to start a thread focused on the evolution of ones personal EDC Flashlight. I wanted to show what I have been carrying for the last 14 years and how I finally decided on HDS Systems flashlight. Post pictures or List of flashlights you carried, and discuss your choices that led you to HDS.

This is what is currently in my pocket every morning. And I am still going to make changes. But one thing that is for sure is I am no longer looking for a primary carry light, I am going to carry HDS from now on. I am also pretty happy with the wallet and pocket knife. Key chain is going to change here soon, as is the EagTac D25A. And also I am going to modify the Holster from Thor's Hammer in a bit. My EDC isn't quite perfect yet, but I am close. Primary Flashlight, wallet and pocket knife are keepers.

Nice, it is interesting how our "kit" evolves. I know most of the knives, but the wallets? What is your current carry?

Nomatic basic wallet, absolute thinnest most comfortable wallet. It helps me keep a thin wallet because you cant carry to much in it.

Keep hanging around here and you won't have much to put in it.

I have been a HDS customer since 2006, first light was a U60 XRGT. Paid over $300 for it right from Henry.

What did you use before you got it? Do you still have it?

Sold it a looooong time ago. Got it right after I got into flashlights, maybe had a surefire before that. I've had and still have all kinds of lights, but always keep a few HDS' in the stable.
